Yeah, I've noticed that the scheduled games for today are few and far between. I'm going to give it a couple more tries this afternoon.

Edit: I did it on my first try this afternoon! Details to follow.

So we did it on the first try and that was with having to do an extra round since we lost two bombs to Knights early on. No helmet, but I got a 320 pulse, 317 pulse, 310 auto scout, and a 309 hand cannon that I'm still reloading.

For those that still run the Nightfall:

The Sunless Cell

Epic - Yo dog, I heard you like shields, so I gave the enemies some shields for their shields
Solar Burn - Ouch....HOT!
Grounded - You jump....you die
Fresh Troops - Where the fuck did these guys come from?
Catapult - Make it rain!

TheKing

AWESOME! Welcome to the club!

Yeah, Monday is sort of the wasteland for Destiny on The100, especially so close to the update. I actually didn't even get on Destiny until reset, playing some GTA instead. Sometimes you just need to play as Trevor, pick up some hookers and kill them to get your money back.

Anyhoo, I completed the Warpriest challenge 3 times so far. Got two 320 Rockets and another 320 Machine gun. We went through with most of the raid once, getting to but failing at Oryx when some of our bombs didn't count. I got 319 gloves from Golgy, and 310 and 303 class armors from sisters (yeah a 310 Hallowed, aka Fuck You).

So right now I have an Oryx checkpoint, and of course, a Warpriest checkpoint for you guys.

Nightfall is Sunless Cell with Solar Burn. I wrote this before your post about the Nightfall. Would have posted it earlier, but lost internet while soloing nightfall. Taken thralls have solar melees, so watch for that.

< crickets >

by the way my gold tier reward from that second Trials run yesterday was a 306 ghost shell .... good times

guess that would have been better than watching your Angels get slaughtered by the Cubbies

So is tonight good for knocking out some Warpriest runs? I wouldn't mind doing WP and then Golgy for some armor drops. I'm in need of boots for both my hunter and Titan. My Warlock is the only one that has boots over 311 (320).

I can get my Warlock to 320 if I infuse my bond with my 320 hunter SRL cloak. As of right now he's 319. At this point I think I'll just hold off since the LL is going up in a week.

So as of today it's:

Titan - 317
Hunter - 318
Warlock - 319

TheKing

So what you're saying is you need Booty O's. In Destiny, they make sure you get Booty.

I watched about half that game, then switched to RAW. Still, not as bad as what the Dodgers did to the Padres. Jeez.

Obey The D

Sorry I got a little cranky towards the end of that run tonight. I was running on fumes at that point. Time for some sleep.

cruzness

sleep? WTF is that? 2.5 hours of sleep is not enough. going to pay for it today. Luckily I have a light schedule @ work and a highly competant student/intern who can do most of my manual labor.

cruzness

Finally got a 320 Harrowed Defiance of Yasmin to drop on our second successful attempt on the Warpriest.

Needed boots for my Warlock - highest level boots are 308 and what do I get? - 310 chest. I already have like 3 320 Warlock chests. I may have some boots to infuse from another charater.

Are we looking to finish off stuff tonight?

cruzness

BTW - my drops from IB (aside from my connection)

313 Nirwens Pulse rifle - infusion fuel since it has a craptastic roll
313 Fusion rifle - infusion fuel since I hate fusion rifles
311 boots. For my Titan. Who has 319, 317 and 315 boots. In other words a big fuck you to me.

I also had random drops of another hand cannon, another fusion rifle and another ghost. (all below 300)

musick

today Bungie will announce fusion rifles will be the greatest weapon ever with their new sandbox update

chase3001

Fusion rifles will now shoot sand! You heard it here first.

musick

someone scooped Planet Destiny??!!!

Obey The D

That never gets old.

Obey The D

I'm in need of boots as well (had no luck last night). I'd be up for doing the third WP and Golgy run tonight, but let's try and wrap it up before 2am tonight, M'kay.

If we have time, I wouldn't mind doing the daughters if we can grab a 6th. If not, we can do that over the weekend. Scott and I can sherpa you all through Oryx HM. Just remember kids, if Killer can do it, so can you. It's amazing what you can acomplish when your Killer Cocktail is a glass of water.

Obey The D

In less than 9 minutes we will find out that Stormcallers will become the fusion rifles of sub classes.

TheKing

Thanks for the recap. I missed the live feed. The changes sound...reasonable.

Obey The D

From watching the gameplay, I'd expect to see many running around with Suros again.

chase3001

That new Queen's auto rifle looked really good as well.

Obey The D

Yes it did. It's essentially a non exotic Suros.

TheKing

OK, now that I've watched the video, I have a few more thoughts.

Not sure the heavy drop in Crucible being 1 per match is a good thing. If one team gets heavy and the other doesn't, it's going to be much tougher to overcome it. In Elimination/Trials, heavy goes away after the heavy round, in everything else, it doesn't.

Dreg's Promise acting more like the Shock Pistol sounds interesting.

Cool that they removed legendary engrams from IB loot table and replaced them with IB loot.

Disappointed that SRL wasn't mentioned at all. We need that back.

musick

depends on how long my PS4 system update takes

Obey The D

Took me a minute, so you should be good to go in about 4 hours!

TheKing

OK, so I did my first set of Nightfalls.

18 Strange Coins
310 Monte Carlo
310 Monte Carlo

Not a typo. For the first time ever, I got the same exotic on two characters in the same week. In this case, back to back. Also got a better Darkblade helm and a Spite. Main account still needs to run, and still needs the Darkblade helm.
